Abstract
Gastric cancer remains a major global health concern with high incidence and mortality rates, particularly in East Asia. Patients often have poor outcomes due to limited treatment efficacy. Zolbetuximab, a monoclonal antibody targeting claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2)-overexpressed in 50% to 80% of gastric cancers-demonstrates promise by initiating antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement-dependent cytotoxicity in CLDN18.2-positive cells. In clinical trials, zolbetuximab with chemotherapy improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The FAST trial showed a median OS increase from 8.4 months to 13.2 months (HR, 0.72; P < .01). The SPOTLIGHT trial found PFS extended to 11.0 months vs. 8.9 months (HR, 0.73; P = .0024) with OS reaching 18.2 months in the zolbetuximab arm. The GLOW trial also confirmed efficacy, with median OS improving from 12.16 months to 14.39 months (HR, 0.771; P = .0118). Zolbetuximab's targeted action, combined with manageable adverse effects, positions it as a promising therapy for advanced gastric cancer.
期刊介绍：
Although laboratory and clinical cancer research need to be closely linked, observations at the basic level often remain removed from medical applications. This journal works to accelerate the translation of experimental results into the clinic, and back again into the laboratory for further investigation. The fundamental purpose of this effort is to advance clinically-relevant knowledge of cancer, and improve the outcome of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of malignant disease. The journal publishes significant clinical studies from cancer programs around the world, along with important translational laboratory findings, mini-reviews (invited and submitted) and in-depth discussions of evolving and controversial topics in the oncology arena. A unique feature of the journal is a new section which focuses on rapid peer-review and subsequent publication of short reports of phase 1 and phase 2 clinical cancer trials, with a goal of insuring that high-quality clinical cancer research quickly enters the public domain, regardless of the trial’s ultimate conclusions regarding efficacy or toxicity.
